TOURISM – THE ADVANTAGES AND 
DISADVANTAGES
 The benefits of tourism.
 Popular leisure activity – relax, have fun, 
‘recharge batteries’ - experience different 
customs and cultures - open our minds / 
broaden our horizons.
 Vital for some countries – people rely on 
tourism for income – attracts investment from 
governments and companies – creates 
employment – improves standard of living
 Drawbacks of tourism
 Negative impact on environment – excessive 
building – destroy natural habitats – spoil 
landscape – pollution and waste – pressure on 
local resources (food, water, energy)
 Rise in cost of living – price of goods and 
services up – second homes – affect local 
people
 Local traditions lost – traditional jobs and 
skills dying out (e.g. farming, fishing) – local 
people forced to work in tourism industry
